Mike,

  It is connecting, but nothing seems to be transferring. 

  Late July was when Synchronet crashed on me big time, and I went back
to VADV32. 

  I noted a REP packet in an directory, but it was over 2 months old.

  Here's the IREX setup I have:

Site Name: capcity2.synchro.net
User Name: ******* (asterisked out)
Password: ******** (asterisked out)
Site's Hours: 0:00-24:00
Lock File Size: 1 byte
Unique storage: No
Filename Case: Don't care
Script Type: Automatic (constructed by Rex)
Dest. Directory: (blank -- does something need to go here??)  
Directory Locking: Do not use directory locking

  I'm rechecking a batchfile that I got from Steve Winn, and modifying
it for my use. This is what I have, so if things need to be corrected,
please let me know.

C:
CD\VA
REM VQWK IS VADV'S QWK MAIL PROCESSOR. THE 9 IS A SPECIAL SYSTEM
REM ACCOUNT FOR IT, AND 73 IS THE INTERNAL NETWORK ID
VQWK.EXE 0 /EXPORT=C:\VA\REP\CAPCITY2.REP,9 NETWORKID=73
GOTO CONVERT
:CONVERT
REM PKUNZIP TAKES THE INITIAL CAPCITY2.REP FILE, UNZIPS IT, AND
REM TAKES OUT THE MESSAGES.DAT FILE, DELETES THE ORIGINAL CAPCITY2.REP
REM FILE, CONVERTS THE ORIGINAL MESSAGES.DAT FILE TO CAPCITY2.REP,
REM THEN RE-ZIPS CAPCITY2.REP WITH CAPCITY2.MSG, AND MOVES THE
REM CAPCITY2.REP FILE TO THE OUTGOING AREA FOR IREX TO HANDLE.
CD\VA\REP
PKUNZIP.EXE -o C:\VA\REP\CAPCITY2.REP MESSAGES.DAT
CD\VA
VQWK2REP.EXE CAPCITY2 C:\VA\REP
CD\VA\REP
IF EXIST MESSAGES.DAT DEL MESSAGES.DAT
IF EXIST CAPCITY2.REP DEL CAPCITY2.REP
IF NOT EXIST CAPCITY2.MSG GOTO FINISH
PKZIP.EXE -m CAPCITY2.REP CAPCITY2.MSG
IF EXIST CAPCITY2.REP MOVE CAPCITY2.REP C:\VA\FIDOMAIL\OUT\GTPNAUTO
IF EXIST CAPCITY2.MSG DEL CAPCITY2.MSG

  I ran each of these lines by hand, so it should work properly.

  Yet, when I ran a deal for IREX to send, it connected to your
system, but nothing seemed to transfer.
